Although
there are great many works ably written by intelligent men in accordance with
excellent literary style, many people get dispirited in trying to cross the

in quadrants, the birth must be foretold of objects that have resemblance to
the nature of the dwadasamsa occupied by Moon at the time, or when under
similar conjunctions the birth sign is aspected by impotent planets, the
birth of viyonis must be predicted
|
Stanza 2:
|

Stanza 1:
|
Mars
and the Moon are the cause for monthly menses. When the Moon is in anupachaya
rasis the menses for conception occurs. When the reverse is the case, and the
masculine benefics aspect, the woman gets sexual union with man.
|
Stanza 2:
|
The

betwixt two evil planets unaspected by benefics jointly or separately the
woman dies in pregnancy
|
Stanza 8:

and 11th houses, and aspected by the Sun she will have a safe and
happy pregnancy.

Stanza 11:
|
If
powerful lagna,
|
Stanza 12:
|
If
Saturn occupies odd signs from the lagna (excepting lagna), he causes male
birth. Examine the relative strength of the various planets and predict the
birth of males or females.
|
Stanza 13:
|
If
the Moon and the Sun aspect mutually, if Saturn and Mercury aspect mutually;
if Mars, in an odd sign, aspects the Sun in an even sign; if the Moon and
lagna are in odd, and have the aspect of Mars in even sign; if the Moon is in
even and Mercury in odd, and have the aspect of Mars; if Venus, lagna and the
Moon are posited in masculine amsas; in all these six cases, eunuchs will be
born.
|
Stanza 14:
|
If
the Moon and Venus are in signs, and if Mercury, Mars, Jupiter and lagna are
in odd signs, twins are born, of whom one will be male and the other female.
Lagna and the Moon in even houses aspected by male planets, produce twins, as
above. If powerful Budha, Kuja, Guru and lagna are in even signs, then
predict the same result. If planets and lagna are in common amsas, aspected
by Mercury in his amsa, three children will be born, of whom two will partake
of the sex of the amsa occupied by Mercury and the other of the opposite sex.
If planets, lagna and Budha are in similar amsas, then three children of that
sex will be born.
|
Stanza 15:
|
If
lagna is in Dhanus, or falls in that amsa, if all the planets are powerful
Sani and Budha, then predict many children at one birth.
|
Stanza 16:
|
|
Stanza 17:
|
If
Budha is in thrikona, and other planets are powerless, then the child will
have two faces, four hands, and four legs with one face. If the Moon is in
Taurus, and evil planets are in Ruksha Sandhis, predict a dumb child. If, in
this conjunction, the Moon has beneficial aspect, the child begins to speak
very late in life.
|
Stanza 18:
|
If
Sani and Kuja occupy Budha’s houses or navamsas, the child will be born with
teeth. If Kataka is lagna with Chandra init, having the aspects of Sani and
Kuja, the child will be dwarf. If Meena becomes lagna becomes a cripple. If
the Rasi Sandhis are occupied by malefics and the Moon, the child will be
deaf. In all these cases there must be no beneficial aspects.
|
Stanza 19:
|
If
the last navamsa of Makara is lagna aspected by Sani, Chandra and
|
Stanza 20:
|
If
Leo is birth occupied by the Sun and the Moon, aspected by Mars and Saturn
the child will be blind. If in the above combination there is also beneficial
aspect the vision will be dim. The Moon in the 12th house causes
loss to the left eye and the Sun there causes loss to the right eye.
Beneficial aspects give some relief in these combinations.
|
Stanza 21:
|
The
birth of a child takes place in the sign occupied by the Moon, which is
represented by the number, in which Dwadasamsa, the Moon is fixed at the
time. The day or the night and the ghaties of the birth time must be known by
the number of the ghaties at the time of the question and the nature of the
sign whether diurnal or nocturnal.
|
Stanza 22:
|
If
Makara or Kumbha navamsa rises at the time of conception, aspected by Sani,
the child will be born after 4 years. If Katakamsa rises at the time of
conception, aspected by Chandra, then the birth occurs after 12 years of
pregnancy. The details in this chapter
must be carefully understood and applied with sense and judgment.

Chapter 5
Janma Kala
lakshana
Stanza 1:
|
If
birth sign is unaspected by the Moon, father will be absent at the
birth. If the Sun occupies a movable
sign (pathitha) from the 10th, the father will be away in a
foreign country at the birth of child.
|
Stanza 2:
|
If
Saturn occupies lagna or if Mars is in the 7th or if the Moon is
between Mercury and Venus, the father will be absent at the birth of the
child.
|
Stanza 3:
|
If
the Moon occupies Mars drekkana and benefics are in the 2nd and 11th
houses, predict a serpent’s birth. If an evil sign falls in Kuja’s drekkana
and has benefics in the 2nd and the 11th, the child
will be bound by a serpent-like bandage.
|
Stanza 4:
|
If
the Sun occupies a quadruped sign and if other powerful planets occupy common
signs, twins will be born covered with a common hood.
|
Stanza 5:
|
If
Mesha, Simha or Vrishabha falls as lagna, occupies by Sani or Kuja, the child
will be born with a cowl or cord in that organ which is represented by the
rising navamsa.
|
Stanza 6:
|
If
Jupiter does not aspect birth and Moon, or if he does not aspect the Sun, in
conjunction with the Moon, if the Moon with a malefic combines with the Sun
then say certainly the child is born to another person or of adultery.
|
Stanza 7:
|
If
malefics occupy the signs of cruel planets and are in the 7th, 9th
or 5th from the Sun, the father will be imprisoned when the child
is born. The sign occupied by the Sun determines the locality of his bondage.
|
Stanza 8:
|
If
Full Moon is in cancer, if Mercury is in lagna and benefics are in the 4th,
the delivery takes place in a boat or steamer, or in a sea voyage. If birth
is watery with the Moon in the 7th the same result happens.
|
Stanza 9:
|
If
birth falls in a watery sign as also the Moon, the delivery will be close to
water. If lagna (a watery sign) has Full Moon’s aspect the same result
happens. If, for such lagna, the Moon is there or in the 5th or 10th
then similar results happen.
|
Stanza 10:
|
If
Saturn occupies the 12th, and a malefic aspects the Moon, the
woman delivers the child when in bondage or jail. If Saturn is in Scorpio or
Cancer one of which is the birth aspected by the Moon, the delivery takes
place in a hole or hollow or pit.
|
Stanza 11:
|
If
birth is watery with Saturn in it, aspected by Mercury, the Sun and the Moon,
the birth takes place in playgrounds, temples and uncultivated fields,
respectively.
|
Stanza 12:
|
If
birth with Sani falls in a Nara Rasi aspected by Kuja the birth happens in a
grave-yard; aspected by Sukra and Chandra in pleasant places; aspected by Guru in
sacrificial places; aspected by Ravi in royal mansions, cowsheds, or temple
premises; aspected by Budha in libraries, art colleges or carpenters’
premises.
|
Stanza 13:
|
Place
of birth happens to be according to the nature of the rasi and navamsa, either
at home or outside. The birth place should be determined according to the
strength of the lagna either in rasi or navamsa.
|
Stanza 14:
|
If
the Moon or the Sun is in the 9th or 5th from Saturn
and Mars, the child will be forsaken by its mother. If in that combination
Jupiter aspects it, the child lives long and prospers although forsaken by
its mother.
|
Stanza 15:
|
If
the Moon is in birth aspected by a malefic and has Mars in the 7th
the forsaken babe will perish. If in this combination Mars and Saturn are in
the 11th, the child dies, if aspected by a benefic, the child gets
protection by such caste man as is indicated by the benefic; if aspected by
malefics, the child falls to different hands and dies.
|
Stanza 16:
|
The
birth takes place in the house of the father or mother according to the
strength of their lords. If benefics occupy debilitated places, birth will be
under trees, roads, etc. If benefics occupy neecha and if the Moon and birth
are unaspected by other planets occupying one house, the birth occurs in
lonely places.
|
Stanza 17:
|
If
Moon joins Saturn’s amsa or is in the 4th or has aspect of Saturn
or occupies watery signs or conjoins with Saturn, then birth takes place in
darkness. If there are three or more debilitated planets, birth takes place on
the ground. The birth takes place similar to the rasi which rises on a level
with the equator. If malefics occupy the 4th or 7th
from Moon or join Moon, the delivery is attended with much pain.
|
Stanza 18:
|
The
quantity of oil by Moon, the wick by the birth sign and the light by Sun, the
door by the planets in quadrants or by the most powerful of the planets must
be ascertained.
|
Stanza 19:
|
If
Saturn is the strongest, the house will be one newly repaired having become
old; if Mars is so, it’s partly burnt; if Moon, new; if the Sun, the house
contains much wood; and if Mercury, built by many artists; if Venus,
handsome, painted and new; if Jupiter, strong house; the adjoining houses
must be indicated similarly by the planets in the rasis.
|
Stanza 20:
|
If
birth falls in Mesha, Kataka, Thula, Vrischika and Kumbha, or in these
navamsa the delivery will be in the eastern part of the house. If the birth
falls in Guru’s or Budha’s houses or amsas the delivery happens in the
northern part of the house. If it falls in Vrishabha or its amsa the birth
takes place in the west and if it falls in Makara or Simha or their navamsas
the birth place will be in the southern side.
|
Stanza 21:
|
The
cardinal direction of the lying down must be indicated by two signs from
Mesha etc., and the corners by the double-bodied signs. Similarly I must be
ascertained for the direction of the bed, etc. The legs of the cost or the
sides of the bed must be ascertained by the 6th, 3rd, 9th
and 12th houses from lagna.
|
Stanza 22:
|
The
number of women to assist the delivery must be determined by the number of
planets between the Moon and the lagna. Their presence inside or outside the
delivery room has to be learnt by the planets in the invisible and the
visible half of the zodiac respectively. Some say quite the reverse.
|
Stanza 23:
|
The
body of the child will resemble the planet who is the lord of the navamsa or
who is the most powerful. The color of the infant will resemble that of the
lord of the navamsa occupied by the Moon. Taking the lagna as head, etc., the
limbs resemble the rasis in which they fall.
|
Stanza 24:
|
If
the first drekkana rises in the lagna; by the Drusya and Adrusya halves of
the zodiac, left and right sides of head, eyes, ears, nose, temples, cheeks
and face must be determined from the lagna respectively. If the second
drekkana rises in the lagna, neck, shoulders, arms, sides, chest, belly and
navel should be similarly determined. If the third drekkana rises in the
lagna, lower stomach, sexual organ and anus, testicles, thighs, knees, calves
and feet must be similarly delineated.
|
Stanza 25:
|
If
those rasis are occupied by the malefics there will be sores or wounds, if
these are occupied or aspected by benefics there will be marks; if such
planets causing sores, etc.-are in their won rasis or navamsas or infixed
signs or navamsas, the sores, etc., will accompany birth, if not they come by
accidents after birth. If such a planet is Saturn the wounds will be caused
by stones and windy diseases; if Mars by fire, weapons and poisons; if
Mercury by the earth or the ground; if the Sun by wood or quadrupeds; if the
Moon by horned animals or aquatics; if they are other planets then there will
be no wounds.
|
Stanza 26:
|
If
Mercury joins three other planets in any rasi he will cause wounds in that
organ which is governed by it. If an evil planet is in the 6th
from birth, there will be wound in that organ represented by that rasi. If
such a malefic has beneficial aspect then there will be Thilaka, Masaka,
etc., there. If benefics join him there will be Lakshma, etc.

Chapter 6
Balarishta (early
death)
Stanza 1:
|
Children
born during sandhi or when birth is in Chandra hora, when evil planets occupy
the ends of signs or when four malefics (including Moon) occupy quadrants,
will die
|
Stanza 2:
|
If
cruel and benefic planets occupy the first and the second halves of the
zodiac respectively and the birth rises in an insect rasi or if the birth and
the 7th ar placed between malefics, the child dies straightaway
|
Stanza 3:
|
If
malefics occupy birth and 7th and if Moon joins cruel planets,
unaspected by benefics, the child dies quickly
|
Stanza 4:
|
If
a weak Moon occupies the 12th with malefics in the birth and the 8th
without benefics in quadrants, the child dies soon
|
Stanza 5:
|
If
Moon joins a malefic and occupies the 7th, 8th or 12th
and when benefics aren’t in quadrants and don’t aspect these, the child dies
|
Stanza 6:
|
If
Moon occupies 6th or 8th aspected by malefics, early
death comes. If such Moon has beneficial aspects, the child dies before 8. If
such Moon ahs mixed aspets, the child lives for 4 years. If a benefic
occupies the 6th or 8th aspected by powerful malefics,
the child lives for a month. If the lord of the birth joins the 7th
and suffers defeat there by malefics, similar results must be predicted
|
Stanza 7:
|
If
a weak Moon joins the lagna with malefics in the 8th or quadrants,
or if Moon is betwixt malefics occupying the 4th, 7th
or 8th, the child dies. If Moon is in lagna as above stated,
malefics in the 7th and 8th without the aspect of
powerful benefics, the mother and child both die
|
Stanza 8:
|
If
Moon occupies the last navamsa of the sign and malefics are in the 5th
and 9th without beneficial aspects, or if lagna joins Moon with
malefics in the 7th, the child dies immediately
|
Stanza 9:
|
If
Moon joins a malefic in lagna, eclipsed with Mars in the 8th, both
mother and child die. Similarly, if Sun is in lagna, death results from
weapons. If Moon or Sun occupy the lagna with powerful malefics in trines and
the 8th, unassociated with benefics, the child dies
|
Stanza 10:
|
If
Saturn, Sun, Moon and Mars occupy the 12th, 9th, lagna
and 8th respectively, unaspected by a powerful Jupiter, the child
dies quickly
|
Stanza 11:
|
If
Moon is with malefics and occupies a trine, 7th, 8th or
12th and not aspected by or combined with a powerful Venus,
Mercury or Jupiter, death comes early
|
Stanza 12:
|
If
Moon in transit joins the house of the most powerful malefic in the above
yogas or joins his own place, or the lagna, when he’s strong and has strong
malefic aspects, he causes death to the child within one year
|
Chapter 7
Ayurdaya
(Longevity)
Stanza 1:
|
Sun,
in deep exaltation give 19, Moon 25, Mars 15, Mercury 12, Jupiter 15, Venus
21 and Saturn 20 years of life respectively according to Maya, Yavana,
Manitha and Saktipurva.
|
Stanza 2:
|
Where
a planet is debilitated he cuts away half of the term of life and in the
middle rasis he give terms of life as per rule of three. The lagna is
supposed to give that number of years, which is represented by its amsa,
while others say the number will be similar to the rasi. A planet in an
unfriendly sign cuts one-third of his term unless he is retrograde. The
combust planets except Venus and Saturn, cut off half their term of life.
|
Stanza 3:
|
Evil
planets in the 12th, 11th, 10th, 9th,
8th, and 7th away 1, ½, 1/3, ¼, 1/6 and 1/8th
of the term of life allotted to them respectively. If benefics occupy the
same houses, they take away only one half of that which the malefics do.
Satyacharya says that, if there are many planets in anyone of the houses,
only the most powerful among them will eat the proportion of life granted by
it.
|
Stanza 4:
|
If
an evil planet occupies the birth the number of amsas, etc., passed by the
lagna must be multiplied by the total of the planetary terms of years, etc.,
and then divided by 108, and deducted from the total term of life the figure
thus obtained. If a benefic aspects the above conjunction, half of this must
be deducted.
|
Stanza 5:
|
Men
and elephants have 60 x 2 years as terms of life and 5 days more. Horses live
32 years. Camels and asses 25 years. Buffaloes and bullocks live 24 years.
Dogs have 12 years. Goats etc., 16 years.
|
Stanza 6:
|
If
the last navamsa of Meena becomes lagna. If Mercury is in the 25th
minute in Vrishabha and if all the rest are in their deep exaltations, the
person gets the utmost limit of life, viz., 120 years and 5 days.
|
Stanza 7 & 8
|
Vishnugupta,
Devaswami and Siddhasena have given similar longevity. There is one serious
objection to the acceptance of their theory, because according to them, no
children can die above 8 and below 20 years which is absurd.
They
have further stated that those who have this longevity will also become
emperors. This is erroneous as many men live long and still be beggars
|
Stanza 9:
|
Jeevasarma
says, on his own responsibility, that each of the planets gives one-seventh
of the period of the longevity stated above. Satyacharya says that each
planet gives that term of life which is indicated by the navamsa he occupies.
This seems to be approved of by many astrological experts.
|
Stanza 10:
|
Convert
the intended planet’s position into kalas; divide this by 200; the quotient,
if divisable, divided by 12 represents years, etc.
|
Stanza 11:
|
A
planet in exaltation or retrogression will give 3 times the term of his life.
If he is in Vargottama or in his own house or navamsa or drekkana he gives
double the period. This is the speciality named by Satyacharya.
|
Stanza 12:
|
Lagna
gives similar number of years as it has advance in the navamsa. If it is very
powerful it will give similar to the rasi. If a malefic is in lagna no
deduction should be made on this account. Do not take the terms of life
granted by the planets as stated before.
|
Stanza 13:
|
Satyacharya’s
system is excellent, but many have spoiled it by useless multiplication.
Whenever
two or three figures are to be multiplied, then multiply it by that figure
which are presents the strongest factors.
|
Stanza 14:
|
If
birth falls in Kataka and Guru and Chandra are in it, Budha and Sukra in the
kendras, the rest in
|
Chapter 8
Dasantardasa
Stanza 1:
|
The
most powerful among Lagna, Surya and Chandra, with planets in their kendras
give results in the commencement, middle, and last periods of life
respectively. If planets are not in kendras, etc., the results will flow in
the commencement even from Apoklima planets.
|
Stanza 2:
|
The
planet most powerful gives the first dasa extending over that period of life
granted by him. If many planets are equally powerful then the first dasa will
belong to that planet who gives the largest term of life. If some planets
give equal terms of life, then the first dasa will be given by that planet
who rises first.
|
Stanza 3:
|
The
planet with the Dasanatha gives half the term of that dasa with his results.
The planet who occupies the thrikona from him gives one-third of that period
with his results. The planet in the 7th from him gives one-seventh
of his period. The planet who is in chaturasra gives one-fourth of that term.
In this manner lagna and planets give their Dasas and Antardasas.
|
Stanza 4:
|
Bring
all the fractions to a common figure, omit the denominators and multiply
severally the numerators by the dasa years and then divide the whole by the
total of the numerators. By doing this you get the Antardasa periods.
|
Stanza 5:
|
The
Dasa (period) of a most powerful and exalted planet is called the Poorna
Dasa. The dasa of a powerless planet is called the Rikta. The period of that
planet which is in the navamsa of unfriendly amsa is called the Aristaphala.
|
Stanza 6:
|
The
planet who has fallen from exaltation gives Avarohi Dasa. If he joins
friendly or exalted navamsa, he constitutes Madhya Dasa.
The
planet who is ascending from his debilitation gives Arohani Dasa. If such a
planet occupies debilitated or unfriendly navamsa, he gives a worthless
period.
|
Stanza 7:
|
If
a planet is in a good house and joins debilitated or unfriendly navamsa, it
gives mixed results. The names are fixed for these indicative of their
results. I shall give the results of the periods of the Sun, etc., later on.
|
Stanza 8:
|
If
lagna rises in common sign, its drekkanas constitute Adhama, Madhya and
Pujita respectively. If lagna is movable, the order must be reversed. If lagna
is fixed, they constitute Ashubha, Ista and Sama respectively. Lagna Dasas
are thus arranged.
|
Stanza 9:
|
Moon,
Mars, Mercury, Venus, Jupiter, the Sun and Saturn give 1, 2, 9, 20, 18, 20,
50 years respectively of Nisargika Dasa. If in the previously stated dasa
period of the planets, they get also this ?Nisargika dasa, they produce good
results. Some of Yavanaas say that the Lagna Dasa comes in the end and gives
good. Some do not accept this view.
|
Stanza 10:
|
If
the anthardasanatha is in lagna, or if his friend is in lagna, or if lagna
falls in his friend’s or in his varga, the dasa beginning then, will be
productive of good. Or if he is in the 3rd, 6th, 10th
or 11th houses it is good. Or if the Moon occupies the exaltation
house of the Pakaswami or his friendly rasi, or thrikona, or the 7th
from him, it produces good. If it is the reverse it produces bad.
|
Stanza 11:
|
That
dasa which begins when the Moon is in his own house is good and gives honour,
wealth and happiness. That dasa which begins when the Moon is in Kuja’s house
makes his wife immoral; if that dasa begins when the Moon is in Budha’s house it gives education, friends and
wealth; if the dasa begins when the Moon is in Simha it gives work for him in
forts, forests, roads, houses and agriculture; if it begins when the Moon is
in Sukra’s house he gives all desirable food; if it begins when the Moon is
in Sani’s house it gives mean woman;
if it begins when the Moon is in Guru’s house it gives reputation, wealth and
happiness.
|
Stanza 12:
|
The
Sun gives wealth by Nakha, (nails or claws) teeth, skins, gold, cruelty,
travel, kings and wars. He makes the man hot-tempered determined in doing
work, in getting reputation and good by courage. He gets misery through wife,
children, wealth, enemy, weapon, fire and king. The Sun gives liberty,
fondness for sinful deeds, quarrels among his workmen or servants, complaints
in chest, stomach and other diseases.
|
Stanza 13:
|
During
the Moon’s period the person gets money or profits from mantras, Brahmins,
sugarcane, milk, clothes, flowers, playing, oil seeds, good and fatigue or
pain. He will be fond of sleep, laziness, enduring pain, Brahmins and
Devatas, getting female issues, possessed of good intelligence, reputation,
earning and spending, and he will pick quarrels with is own men and those who
are more powerful than himself.
|
Stanza 14:
|
During
the period of Mars there will be destruction of enemies, gains from rulers,
lands, brothers, sheep and wool. He will have hatred among his children,
wife, friends, brothers, learned men, and preceptors. He will suffer from
thirst, bloody diseases, fever, bile, fractures. He’ll be fond of others’
wives, sinful men and uncharitable deeds. He’ll be harsh, hot and
evil-tempered
|
Stanza 15:
|
In
the period of Mercury, the person gets wealth by embassy, friends, preceptors
and Brahmins. He’ll be praised by learned men and thereby gets reputation. He
gets gold, mules, lands and personal charm, and happiness. He’ll be witty and
humorous and will be clever in serving. he’ll have a good mind and charitable
disposition. Harshness, fatigue, restraint or imprisonment, mental disease
and complaints from the three dhatus
(vaata, pittha and sleshma) will
result
|
Stanza 16:
|
In
his period, Jupiter gives honor, good character, good mind, personal charm,
courage, philanthropic disposition, determination and devotion. He gets
wealth thru mantras, kings, vedic recitation, counsel and skill in diplomacy.
He’ll have gold, houses, sons, elephants, clothes and friendship with good
rulers. he gets troubled by deep thinking, diseases in the ear and hatred
among lawless people
|
Stanza 17:
|
During
Venus’ period, the person will be fond of music, pleasure, fine scents, good
food and drink, clothes, females, gems, personal charm, sensual pleasure,
yogis, friends, desirable personages, skill in merchandise, agriculture,
treasure-troves, wealth, hated by communities, kings, wild people, vagabonds
and sorrow thru friendship
|
Stanza 18:

During
Saturn’s period, the person gets donkeys, camels, birds, buffaloes, old
women, leadership over communities, towns or cities, and inferior gains. he
gets miseries or troubles thru phlegm, jealousy, wind, anger, derangement,
dirt, laziness and fatigue. He’ll be insulted and terrified by servants,
children, wife and will suffer the loss of a limb
|
Stanza 19:
|
Good
periods give happiness and bad periods produce misery. Mixed periods give
mixed results and the result of the lagna dasa will be similar in nature
to its lord
|
Stanza 20:
|
In
the period of each planet, the results will be based on the materials or
objects that have been detailed in the Saumgnyadhyaya and the means of
livelihood detailed in the Karma Jivadhyaya. Results of the planets will be
determined by the aspects, occupation and other combinations given elsewhere
|
Stanza 21:
|
Different
planets give their luster of the mahabootas in their periods. This luster or
shade has to be identified by the nose, face, eyes, skin and ear obtained by
or thru the earth, water, fire, air and space
|
Stanza 22:
|
During
the time of an auspicious planet, the mind of the person will be good. It
enables the man to get wealth and secure happiness. The dasa may also be
known by the happiness or misery the man is subjected to. The results
produced by powerless planets will be enjoyed in dreams and thoughts
|
Stanza 23:
|
If
one planet represents two contrary results, the effect will be the
destruction of those events. but if one is stronger than the other, the
stronger prevails. If one planet represents one and another indicates a
contrary result, there’ll be both the results. Planets give good or bad in
their own periods

balances show good. Planets in upachaya, in friendly or own houses and exaltations
give plenty of good; planets in apachayas, in debilitation or unfriendly
houses don’t do good
|
Chapter 10
Karmajeeva
(profession)
Stanza 1:
|
From
Sun, etc., the acquisition of wealth must be predicted thru father, mother,
enemy, friend, brother, woman and servant respectively, when he occupies the
10th house from birth or Moon, or thru lord of the navamsa
occupied by the lord of the 10th, from birth, Moon or Sun
|
Stanza 2:
|
If
the lord of the navamsa is Sun, the person gets wealth thru scents, gold,
wool, medicines, etc. If the amsa lord is Moon, wealth flows thru
agriculture, watery products and dependence upon women, etc. If the lord of
the navamsa is Mars, he gets money thru minerals, fire, weapons, adventures
and physical strength. If the lord of the navamsa is Mercury, money is
obtained thru writing, math, poetry and fine arts
|
Stanza 3:
|
If
the lord of the navamsa is Jupiter, he gets money from Brahmins, priests,
Gods, in mines or manufactures, and from charities. If that lord is Venus, he
makes money by gems, silver, cows, buffaloes, etc. If he’s Saturn, he gets
money from labor, by execution, carrying and by low artisanship. The source
of income may be such as that which is controlled by the lord of the navamsa
occupied by the lord of 10th in transit
|
Stanza 4:
|
Planets
give wealth similar to the houses they occupy. If Sun is exalted and
powerful, the man gets wealth by self‑acquisition. If powerful benefics are
in lagna, 2nd or 11th, he gets money in many ways
|
Chapter 11
Rajayoga
Stanza 1:
|
Yavanas
say that three or more cruel planets in exaltation will produce a cruel-minded
king. Jeevasarma and his school say that exalted cruel planets won’t raise a
man to kingly power
|
Stanza 2:
|
If
Mars, Saturn, Sun and Jupiter or any three of them are exalted and one of
these three occupies the lagna, 16 rajayogas arise. If Moon is in his own
house, and any two of the above planets are in exaltation, with one of them
in birth, or if any of the above-named planets is in exaltation occupying the
lagna, they produce 16 rajayogas
|
Stanza 3:
|
If
lagna or Moon occupies vargottama and has the aspects of four or more
planets, except Moon, 22 rajayogas are generated
|
Stanza 4:
|
If
Saturn is in Aquarius, Sun in Aries, Moon in Taurus and lagna rises in one of
these, and Mercury, Jupiter and Mars are in Gemini, Leo and Scorpio, there’ll
be combinations for royalty. If Sun and Moon are in exaltation and lagna
rises in one of these signs and if Sun and Mercury are in the 6th,
and if Venus, Mars and Jupiter are in Libra, Aries and Cancer, they generate
two rajayogas
|
Stanza 5:
|
If
Mars is in Capricorn, Sun and Moon in Sagittarius, and lagna rising in
Capricorn with Saturn in it, the person becomes a king. If, in the above
combination, Moon joins Mars in birth or if Saturn and Moon are in 7th,
if Jupiter is in Sagittarius, and Aries becomes lagna with Sun there, the
person becomes a king
|
Stanza 6:
|
If
Taurus rises at birth with Moon in it, and Sun, Jupiter and Saturn are in the
4th, 7th and 10th respectively, the person
certainly becomes a king. If Capricorn is birth with Saturn in it, and 3, 6,
9 or 12 are occupied by Moon, etc., the person becomes a famous, good-natured
and prominent king
|
Stanza 7:
|
If
Jupiter with Moon is in Sagittarius, Mars in Capricorn and Pisces or Virgo is
the lagna with Mercury and Venus there, two rajayogas arise. If Mars and
Saturn occupy the 5th, Jupiter, Moon and Venus join the 4th,
if Virgo rises as lagna with Mercury in it, the person becomes a king with
good character
|
Stanza 8:
|
If
Pisces becomes lagna with Moon in it, Saturn, Mars and Sun are in Aquarius,
Capricorn and Leo respectively, the person born will rule the earth.
If
Aries becomes lagna with Mars in it, with Jupiter in Cancer or if Cancer
rises with Jupiter in it, with Mars in Aries, a king will be born
|
Stanza 9:
|
If
Cancer is lagna with Jupiter in it and if Moon, Venus and Mercury are in
Taurus and Sun in Aries, a mighty king will be born
|
Stanza 10:
|
If
Capricorn is lagna with Saturn in it and if Aries, Cancer and Leo are
combined with their lords and if Gemini and Libra are occupied by Mercury and
Venus, the person becomes a renowned ruler
|
Stanza 11:
|
If
an exalted Mercury is in lagna, Venus in Gemini, Moon and Jupiter in Pisces
with Saturn and Mars in Capricorn, the person becomes a king
|
Stanza 12:
|
In
the combinations for royalty sketched before, persons born in poverty will
become kings; much more so persons born in royal families. The combinations
to be given hereafter will make men kings who are born in royal families and
others born in ordinary families will become equal to kings
|
Stanza 13:
|
If
there are three or more powerful exalted or moolatrikona planets in a
horoscope, a person born in a royal family will become a king. If this number
is five or more, then persons born in ordinary families will become rulers.
If these planets are powerless, the persons won’t be kings but wealthy men
|
Stanza 14:
|
If
Aries is the lagna with Sun half-rising and Moon in it, Mars in Capricorn and
Jupiter in Sagittarius, the person born in a royal family becomes a king
|
Stanza 15:
|
When
Venus occupies the 4th from lagna, Moon occupies the 9th
and the rest are in the 1st, 3rd and 11th
houses, the person becomes a king
|
Stanza 16:
|
If
a powerful Mercury is in lagna, a powerful benefic in the 9th and
the rest of the planets in the 2nd, 3rd, 6th,
9th, 10th or 11th, the person born in a
royal family will become a good and charitable king
|
Stanza 17:
|
If
Taurus is lagna and Moon, Jupiter and Saturn and other planets occupy the 1st,
2nd, 6th and 11th respectively, or if Moon
and Sun in the 10th and Saturn in lagna and other planets in the
11th, the person becomes king
|
Stanza 18:

If
Moon, Saturn and Jupiter are in the 10th, 11th and 1st
respectively, Mercury and Mars in the 2nd and Venus and Sun in the
4th, the person becomes a king. If Mars and Sun are in lagna,
Moon, Jupiter, Venus, Sun and Mercury are in the 4th, 7th,
9th, 10th and 11th respectively, the person
becomes a king
|
Stanza 19:
|
The
person gets royal power in the antaradasa of the most powerful planet or of
the planet who combines in the 10th or the 1st. He
loses that power in the antaradasa of the planet who’s unfriendly or
debilitation house because such a period is called the chara dasa. He then
must seek protection from a powerful king
|
Stanza 20:
|
If
Jupiter, Venus or Mercury is in lagna, Saturn in 7th and Sun in
the 10th, the person will enjoy his life well. If beneficial signs
are powerful and fall in quadrants and malefics occupy cruel signs, the
person will be a master of hunters, thieves and wealth

Chapter 12
Nabhasa Yogas
Stanza 1:
|
By
combinations of two, three and four the multiples of 9, 10, 8 by 3, 3 and 4
respectively will be the number of Nabhasa yogas obtained by this process.
Yavanas have described 1800 varieties but I will describe them here briefly.
|
Stanza 2:
|
If
the planets are in Chara, etc., Rajju, Musala and Nala yogas are formed
respectively according to Satya. These are Asraya yogas. Parasara mentions
two yogas as Dala under sruk and sarpa when the benefics and malefics are in
kendras respectively.
|
Stanza 3:
|
Asraya
yogas, according to some, are really incorporated in the Yava, Abja, Vajra,
Andaja, Golaka, etc., to be stated hereafter. Dala yogas have no separate
significance, according to some, as the results of benefics and malefics
occupying the kendras have already been indicated.
|
Stanza 4:
|
When
two adjacent quadrants are combined with all the planets it goes under the name
of Gada.
It
will be called Sakata when all the planets occupy the 1st and the
7th houses. When all the planets occupy the 4th and the
10th is called Vihaga. If all the planets occupy the 1st,
5th and 9th houses it is called Sringataka. If all the
planets are in5th and 9th it is called Hala. So say the learned in
astrology.
|
Stanza 5:
|
When
benefics are in first and seventh and malefics are in fourth and tenth it is
called Vajra. If the planets are reversed then it is called Yava. If the
planets are mixed it is called Kamala. If the planets are outside kendras it
is called Vapi.
|
Stanza 6:
|
I
have give these Vajra yogas, etc., in accordance with older sciences, but how
can Budha and Sukra be in the 4th from the Sun?
|
Stanza 7:
|
If
all the planets are within the first four houses of the 1st, 2nd
3rd and 4th kendras Yupa, Ishu, Sakthi and Danda yogas
are respectively formed.
|
Stanza 8:
|
If
all the planets are in the first 7 houses from the 1st, 2nd,
3rd and 4th kendras they give rise to Nau, Kuta, Chatra
and Chapa yogas respectively. If these yogas are in other houses they are
called Ardachandra.
|
Stanza 9:
|
If
all the planets are in the alternate houses from the 2nd from
lagna, it goes under the name of Samudra. If from lagna planets are similarly
situated, it forms Chakra. This is the summary of Akriti yogas.
|
Stanza 10:
|
By
all the planets occupying 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 and 1 houses, they form seven
yogas, viz., Vallaki, Dama, Pasa, Kedara, Shula, Yuga and Gola, respectively.
These are to be considered in the absence of the previously mentioned yogas.
|
Stanza 11:
|
Rajju
produces envy, foreign residence and fondness for traveling. Musala makes one
proud, wealthy, and capable of doing many works. Nala makes a person
limbless, determined, rich and courageous. Srik makes him happy and Sarpa
gives him great misery.
|
Stanza 12:
|
Asraya
yogas, when they join other yogas become fruitless. The yogas with which
Asrayas join will give results. When Asrayas are free, they give their own
results.
|
Stanza 13:
|
Gada=fond
of sacrifices, rich; Sakata=lives by carriages, sickly, bad wife;
Vihaga=ambassador, traveler, quarrelsome; Sringataka=happiness after a long

productive of their own results.

Chapter 13
Chandrayogadhyaya
Stanza 1:
|
When
Moon occupies quadrants, etc. from Sun, three yogas arise called Adhama,
Sama, Varishta respectively, producing politeness, wealth, wisdom, intelligence
and skill accordingly. If Moon is in his own or friendly Navamsa during the
day and night possessing the aspect of Jupiter and Venus respectively, the
person will be wealthy and happy
|
Stanza 2:
|
When
benefics occupy the 6th, 7th and 8th from
Moon, they cause Adhi yoga and the result is the birth of a commander, a
minister or king. Persons born in this conjunction (adhi yoga) will be
gentlemanly, happy, surrounded with luxury, without foes, long-lived and
rejected by diseases
|
Stanza 3:
|
With
the exception of Sun, other planets in the 2nd from Moon in the 12th
from him and in the 2nd and 12th from Moon cause
Sunapha, Anapha and Dhuradhura yogas respectively. If these aren’t so, many
say it’s kemadruma. If planets are in quadrants from lagna or Moon or if Moon
is combined with planets, there’s no kemadruma. Some say these yogas arise
from quadrants and navamsas, but their doctrine hasn’t been accepted
|
Stanza 4:
|
There
are 30 varieties of Sunapha and Anapha conjunction. There are 180 varieties
of Duradhara. The intended varieties can be found out by placing planets in
regular order and dropping the first in proceeding to the last and repeating
this

free from mental sorrow

be liberal and possessed of good servants. The person born under kemadruma,
although he may take his birth in a royal family, will be dirty, sorrowful,
doing work against his caste, poor, dependent and roguish
|
Stanza 7:
|
If
Mars causes these yogas, the person will be energetic, wealthy, warlike and
adventurous. If Mercury causes the yogas, the person will be skilful, have
sweet speech and be learned in arts. If Jupiter causes the yogas, the person
will be rich, charitable, happy and respected by rulers. If Venus, he’ll be
fond of women, very wealthy and will enjoy sensual pleasures
|
Stanza 8:
|
If
Saturn causes these yogas, the man will enjoy others’ wealth and articles,
will be engaged in various works and be a leader of an assembly. Moon, if
visible in the day, does mischief but when he’s invisible, he’ll be
auspicious. Otherwise, the results will be different
|
Stanza 9:
|
When
all benefics are in Upachayas from lagna, the person will be extremely
wealthy. When all benefics are in Upachayas from Moon, he’ll be wealthy. When
two benefics are in Upachayas, there’ll be moderate wealth. Less than that
will produce little wealth. The results from these will predominate over
others

respectively. The pravrajya yogas are determined by the most powerful
planets. When these planets have suffered a defeat, the person will renounce
pravrajya afterwards
|
Stanza 2:
|
If
powerful pravrajya-causing planets are in combust with Sun, then the persons
born won’t take up sanyasa but will greatly worship those who have embraced
sanyasa. If the yogakaraka and defeated planets are aspected by other
planets, the person would be making an application for diksha

janmesha isn’t aspected by other planets but aspects Saturn, or when Saturn
aspects a weak janmesha or if Moon is in Saturn’s Drekkana and occupies the
amsa of Saturn or Mars and has saturnine aspect, the person will have diksha
|
Stanza 4:
|
If
Jupiter, Moon and lagna are aspected by Saturn, and if Jupiter is in the 9th,

dikshita when he’s born in rajayoga

|
Stanza 13:
|
The
dead body, as per the Drekkana in the 8th house, viz., dahana,
jala and misra, will be reduced to ashes by fire or atoms by water
respectively. If the 8th Drekkana is vyala, the body will be
disgraced. The disposal of the dead body must be explained in this manner and
as regards past and future births, the reader must consult elaborate works on
the subject
|
Stanza 14:
|
Jupiter,
Moon and Venus, Sun and Mars, and Saturn and Mercury bring people from
devaloka, pitruloka, tiryagloka and narakaloka respectively. According to the
position of the lord of the Drekkana occupied by the more powerful between
Sun and Moon, we’ve to predict the high, middle or low state of the man in
his previous birth
|
Stanza 15:
|
If
the lord of the Drekkana of the 6th or 8th or the
planet who occupies the 7th indicates the state of man’s future
existence after death. If Jupiter is in exaltation and occupies 6th,
8th or any quadrant, if Pisces is lagna occupying a beneficial
Navamsa and other planets than Jupiter are powerless, the person attains
moksha

Chapter 26
Nasta jataka
(unknown horoscopes)
Stanza 1:
|
When
a person has no record of his birth time or the time of conception, the birth
must be predicted according to the lagna rising at the time of the question.
The birth must be predicted in uttarayana or dakshinayana as the first or the
second hora in the lagna rises
|
Stanza 2:
|
By
the rising drekkana in the lagna, Jupiter’s position in 1st, 5th
or 9th must be ascertained according to the appearance of the
querist. If Sun is in lagna, the birth takes place in Greeshma and so on for
other planets as stated before. If the rithu falls in a wrong ayana, then it
must be corrected by the position of the Sun
|
Stanza 3:
|
If
a rithu falls in a wrong ayana, then change Moon, Mercury and Jupiter for
Venus, Mars and Saturn respectively. If the first half of a drekkana rises,
the first month of the rithu must be predicted, and the day must be
proportionately found out
|
Stanza 4:
|
The
learned Brahmin astrologers predict the tithi by reference to the degree of
the Sun. The birth must be predicted reversely in the nocturnal and diurnal
signs. By the degrees of the lagna, the birth time must be ascertained
|
Stanza 5:
|
Some
say that the lunar month has to be made out with reference to the position of
the Moon in navamsa. The position of the Moon must be made out by the most
powerful among the lagna and trikona or by the touching of the organs, etc.
of the querist
|
Stanza 6:
|
Moon’s
position will be in that rasi which is equal to the number of rasis gained by
him from the question lagna. If Moon is in Pisces, then that will be the sign
occupied by him at birth. The position of Moon at birth may also be
ascertained by the articles of food, by animals and sounds at the question
time
|
Stanza 7:
|
The
birth lagna will be that represented by the rising navamsa at the time of the
query or it will be that lagna which, when counted from the question lagna,
is similar in number to the drekkanas separating the question lagna from Sun
at the time
|
Stanza 8:
|
Multiply
the longitude of the planet in the lagna or that of the most powerful by
chayangula and divide it by twelve. The remainder denotes the number of the
birth lagna from Aries or the birth lagna will be the 7th, 4th,
10th or 1st as the querist is sitting or lying down or
rising or standing respectively
|
Stanza 9:
|
Taurus
and Leo, Gemini and Scorpio, Aries and Libra, Virgo and Capricorn must be
multiplied by 10, 8, 7 and 5 respectively. The remaining rasis (signs) must
be multiplied by their own number. Jupiter, Mars, Venus and Mercury must be
similarly multiplied. The remaining planets must be multiplied like Mercury.
This must necessarily be done with the signs. When there’s a planet in the
lagna, it must also undergo this multiplication
|
Stanza 10:
|
Multiply
the result thus obtained by 7, and divide the total (after adding to or
subtracting 9 from it) by 27; the remainder shows the number of the star in
which the person is born. From the question lagna, the 7th, 3rd,
5th and 6th bhavas may also be indicated and their
stars ascertained
|
Stanza 11:
|
By
multiplying the total mentioned in Stanzas 9 by 10, etc. and also by adding
to or subtracting from it and by dividing that by the various figures already
given, the year, season, month, lunar day, night and day, constellation,
time, ascendant, navamsa, etc. may be ascertained
|
Stanza 12:
|
From
the total multiplied by 10, the year, season and month have to be found out.
From the total multiplied by 8, fortnight and lunar day have to be
ascertained
|
Stanza 13:
|
Take
the total multiplied by 7 and from it, predict the constellation, day and
night times
|
Stanza 14:
|
Take
the total multiplied by 5 and ascertain the time, sign, hora, amsa, etc.
|
Stanza 15:
|
Take
the matras of the real name, multiply it by two and add to the result the
number of chayangulas obtained at the time and divide the total by 27; then,
take the remainder and count it from Dhanishta to get the birth constellation
of the querist
|
Stanza 16:
|
The
figures 2, 3, 14, 10, 15, 21, 9 and 8 from the east, etc. must be multiplied
by 15 and the number of persons looking in the same direction as the querist
must be added to the total and divided by 27; the remainder shows the number
of constellations from Dhanishta
|
Stanza 17:
|
Various
methods have been expounded about lost horoscopes. The real student will
accept that which he finds correct after laborious calculations
